About Jessica
LCSW in Kentucky and Indiana with 23 years' experience, Jessica VanBuren Curtis focuses on grief and coping with life changes. She works with adults who are navigating loss, supporting someone at the end of life, or adjusting to big changes. Sessions are conversational and straightforward, aimed at helping people handle immediate needs and long-term concerns.
Jessica helps people name what feels most urgent and practical. She listens for patterns that make daily life harder, then suggests small, workable strategies. That might mean finding ways to manage overwhelming days, setting routines, or practicing brief grounding techniques to reduce stress.
Her work also addresses aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, hospice and end-of-life counseling, life purpose, self-love, and women's issues. She supports caregivers who are juggling responsibilities and people facing health-related limits. The emphasis is on usable tools that can fit into a busy life.
Jessica draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person's tolerance. She helps people make sense of changes and plan for what comes next, rather than offering quick fixes.
Clients can expect clear explanations and practical homework when it helps. Jessica aims to build lasting coping skills that people can call on later. She works from Indiana and holds LCSW credentials in Kentucky and Indiana.

How Jessica integrates therapeutic techniques into online care
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to keep sessions focused and practical. One common approach is brief skill-building work that teaches specific coping strategies for intense emotions and difficult days. That helps with grief, caregiver stress, and managing chronic illness symptoms in daily life.Another approach is problem-focused planning. This method breaks problems into steps and builds routines or checklists to reduce overwhelm. It is useful for people balancing caregiving duties, medical appointments, or new limitations that accompany aging and illness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jessica will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts pacing and tools based on what is actually helpful in day-to-day life.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during brief breaks. They can also accommodate quieter conversations without requiring long commutes, while preserving the same therapeutic techniques used in person.
